this was killed in 2007 because harry reid derailed a very careful process set up by the white house senator kennedy and senator mccain that had 94 amendments set up to vote. senator bayh would have been there i think at the time to vote on them. and that was important because the legislation has to have the consensus of republicans and democrats that they have had a chance to write it as best they could. >> chris: senator bayh strikes me that the toughest part of the bill for the conservatives whether it is amnesty or are not amnesty is that the 11 million illegal immigrants now, in the country are are going to get legal status and a lot of people think that it will never get revoked. i think the toughest part for liberals is the fact that it is tough and there are are enforcements because it is going to be a decade or longer. in that sense that it will tick off people on the right and the left has the gang of eight hit the sweet spot here? >> i think they have chris. it shows why this is hard and hasn't been done until now. we as democrats need to decide to solve it substantively,
